Since Jorge Jesus' brilliant time at Flamengo in 2019, with several achievements and great numbers, eight other coaches have coached the club, in addition to an interim one. Of those eight, seven of them underperformed. Only Dorival managed to have a good job, with Copa do Brasil and Libertadores titles, but he was fired at the end of the 2022 season.


Tite arrived at Rubro-Negro in 2023, going undefeated at the start of the season this year, but is on a bad run of results, and has a chance of being left out of the round of 16 of the Libertadores. Check out the performance of Flamengo's coaches since 2019, below.


Jorge Jesusleft Mais Querido at the beginning of 2020 after a year and a month leading the team. There were 58 games in the meantime, with an 81.6% success rate and some titles to count. None of his successors managed to reach such numbers.


With four months in 2021, Renato Gaúcho was the one who achieved almost as good performance as Mister. Over the course of 37 games he reached the 72% success rate, even without any major titles to his name.

What may impress many fans is that Tite is still Flamengo's third best coach in terms of success (68.5%), even after a sad sequence of games in recent weeks. The former Brazilian national team has been in charge of Mais Querido for seven months and has already been in charge of 37 matches.



4. Maurício Souza (*interim): Use of 68.4%; 19 games with around 3 months (2021/22)

5. Paulo Sousa: Use of 66.7%; 32 games with five months (2022)

6. %; 26 games in less than four months (2020) 7. Jorge Sampaoli: 60.7% success 39 games in five months (2023) Dorival Júnior 8. : 59.3% usage; 43 games with almost six months (2022) 9. Rogério Ceni: 59.3% usage; 45 games with eight months

10. Vítor Pereira: 57.4% success; 18 games in three months (2023)

Although he was the first signing by Flamengo in this transfer window, midfielder Jorge Carrascal was the last to show up in Rio de Janeiro . According to the 'GE' portal, the last document signed by the Russian club arrived at Flamengo late in the afternoon of this Friday (1st). With that, the official announcement of the player will be made in the coming days, after the conclusion of pending procedures with Atlético-MG.


WHAT DELAYED THE DELIVERY?


The reason for the delay was that Dynamo Moscow, his former club, took too long to complete the necessary paperwork for the transfer . The Russian team only released the Colombian after signing Rubens from Atlético-MG as a replacement.


At Dynamo's request, Flamengo will participate in the payment to Atlético-MG for Rubens' acquisition. Thus, a significant portion of the €12 million (R$77 million) invested by Carrascal will go to the Minas Gerais club.

Despite being in Rio since Wednesday, Carrascal has not yet been regularized with the CBF, which prevents him from playing in the next matches — against Ceará, this Sunday (3), for the Brasileirão, and against Atlético-MG, Wednesday (7), for the second leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil. The registration deadlines for both matches have already expired.


PREMIERE FORECAST

The Colombian's debut is scheduled for August 9th against Mirassol at Maracanã, in the final round of the first half of the Brazilian Championship . Having been training regularly and playing for Dinamo, Carrascal is expected to be available to Filipe Luís as soon as he is officially confirmed. He has already passed the medical exams but will only be able to train with the club after being registered.

Flamengo received, this Friday (1st), another millionaire amount related to the sale of right-back Matheuzinho. Corinthians paid around R$ 14 million to Rubro-Negro , paying off the remaining amount of the negotiation made in February of this year.


At the time, the Rio de Janeiro club sold the player for R$21.48 million, but Corinthians delayed the third installment of the agreement. As a result, Flamengo demanded immediate payment of the entire outstanding amount . The information was initially reported by the portal Meu Timão.


HOW WAS THE DEBT PAID?


To facilitate the payment, Corinthians signed an agreement with Brax, the company responsible for marketing advertising signs for both clubs. The company acted as guarantor for the deal and transferred the funds to Flamengo .

By August, Corinthians had already paid R$8 million directly to the Rio de Janeiro club. It then transferred R$7.58 million to Brax , which topped up the amount with another R$6 million , fully settling the debt with the club.


FOCUS ON THE BRAZILIAN CHAMPIONSHIP

While the board celebrates receiving the amount, Flamengo remains focused on the field. The team led by Filipe Luís returns to play this Sunday (3), against Ceará, at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Arena Castelão, for the 18th round of the Brasileirão. The match will be broadcast live on Premiere, on pay-per-view.

Flamengo has already made four signings official this transfer window , but the delay in negotiations has drawn criticism from some fans . During striker Samuel Lino's presentation, football director José Boto spoke out on the matter and apologized to the Flamengo Nation.


“Sometimes things take a little longer than the fans want, and I apologize to the fans, but we ( Flamengo 's board) have fixed ideas, and as long as it's possible to have the players we want , we'll go after it,” explained Boto.


HOW DOES FLAMENGO MOVE IN THE WINDOW?


Brazilian football's second transfer window opened on July 10th, and Flamengo began the period cautiously, monitoring the market and evaluating options. As the weeks progressed, the board accelerated negotiations and secured four key signings : Saúl Ñíguez, Emerson Royal, Samuel Lino, and Jorge Carrascal.

ARE MORE HIRES ON THE WAY?


Despite the names already confirmed, Flamengo remains attentive to the market. The club is in ongoing negotiations with Fiorentina, Italy, to sign striker Lucas Beltrán . Flamengo has already agreed on a fee with the Italian club, but still needs to convince the Argentine player to return to South America.

NEXT APPOINTMENT ON THE FIELD

While the board works behind the scenes, the squad led by Filipe Luís focuses on the challenges on the field. Flamengo's next match is this Sunday (3), against Ceará , at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Castelão, for the 18th round of the Brazilian Championship.
